NWRLOTS-NRT-RTF-AV-RPT-105005-E

Executive Summary

Renzo Tonin & Associates (NSW) Pty Ltd, on behalf of Northwest Rapid Transit (NRT) has prepared this

Operational Noise and Vibration Review (ONVR) for the final design stage of the Sydney Metro

Northwest project (the 'Project'). This report addresses noise and vibration for the Sydney Metro Train

Facility (SMTF, formerly Rapid Transit Rail Facility - RTRF) as approved under State Significant

Infrastructure (SSI) 5931 [1]. The ONVR is a requirement of SSI 5931 Condition F4, and forms a key

element of the operational management documents for the Project.

Separate ONVR's will be prepared for train operations between Epping Station and Cudgegong Road

Station and other fixed facilities (in accordance with Project Approval SSI 5414 [2]) at a later date.

The Project Environmental Assessment [3], associated Submissions Report and Preferred Project Report

[4] included detailed operational noise and vibration assessments which were reviewed by the NSW

Department of Planning and Infrastructure (now NSW Department of Planning and Environment -

DP&E) prior to the Minister for Planning and Infrastructure granting the Project Approval [1]. This ONVR

builds on these previous environmental assessments of noise (air and ground-borne) and vibration

including:

Confirming the operational noise (air and ground-borne) and vibration objectives to manage

noise and vibration impacts on adjoining development and other noise-sensitive receivers,

Predicting the operational noise and vibration impacts at adjoining development based on

the final design of the project,

Identifying mitigation measures for controlling operational noise and vibration at source and

at nearby sensitive receivers,

Describing the procedures for operational noise and vibration complaints management once

the Project is operational.

SMTF overview

The SMTF is located at the western most end of the Project, west of Tallawong Road and north of

Schofields Road, Schofields.

The SMTF provides for the stabling, cleaning and maintenance of trains that will operate on the Sydney

Metro Northwest including the operations control centre (OCC) and administration facilities. Bulk

electrical supply equipment and substations are also located within the SMTF site.

Noise and vibration objectives

All operations and equipment associated with the SMTF are categorised as fixed facilities and in

accordance with Condition F2 of SSI 5931, noise emissions are required to be assessed against the NSW

Industrial Noise Policy (INP) [5].




105005-E] iv



Condition F3 of SSI 5931 requires vibration objectives for human exposure to be set in accordance with

Department of Environment and Climate Changes (DECC) ‘Assessing Vibration – A technical guideline’

[6].

While Condition F1 of SSI 5931 requires assessment of rail line components against the RING [7], in

accordance with the RING, maintenance facilities and stabling yards are excluded and are to be assessed

against the NSW Industrial Noise Policy (INP) [5] as per Condition C5 of SSI 5931.

There are no rail line components as part of the SMTF that are assessable against the Rail Infrastructure

Noise Guideline (RING) [7] in accordance with Condition F1 of SSI 5931.

With regard to ground-borne noise, the SMTF does not include underground or in-tunnel rail

infrastructure and subsequently ground-borne (internal) noise is not assessed within this ONVR.

Operational noise and vibration impact predictions

Noise and vibration impact predictions have been carried out for each facility and activity in accordance

with the requirements of the applicable noise and vibration criteria.

Noise from the SMTF was carried out using 3D noise prediction software, incorporating all relevant

design aspects, such as buildings, surrounding land topography, noise source locations and

characteristics, operational procedures, and location of sensitive receiver locations etc. The noise model

was used to establish where noise mitigation was required for the Project, and evaluate the

effectiveness of noise mitigation measures.

Mitigation measures

Noise and vibration mitigation measures have been implemented into the design of SMTF with its

associated buildings. In accordance with the relevant criteria, all feasible and reasonable measures have

been implemented at source, or within the rail corridor so as to satisfy the noise and vibration

objectives. Such mitigation measures include noise barriers around plant and equipment, low noise

plant and equipment selection, acoustic attenuators, siting and positioning of noise sources away from

sensitive receivers, and building envelope design considerations. In some cases, residual noise

exceedances have required the consideration of at-property noise mitigation treatment of existing

receiver properties and for future noise sensitive development surrounding the SMTF to incorporate

noise mitigation measures. The specific at-property noise mitigation treatments will require consultation

with the relevant property owners, and may include local barrier fences, provision of mechanical

ventilation to allow windows/doors to remain closed and/or upgrade of some windows/doors.

The process of determining the feasible and reasonable noise mitigation treatment options is set out in

this ONVR, along with the details of the final noise mitigation design for the Project.




105005-E] v



Consultation and Independent verification

This ONVR is to be reviewed by relevant Government agencies and independently verified, as required

by the conditions of approval set out in SSI-5931.

Next steps

Once the ONVR has been independently verified and submitted to DP&E, NRT will commence one-on-

one consultation with property owners of existing dwellings that may be eligible for at-property noise

mitigation treatments. Subject to a detailed property inspection, one or more of the following options

will be offered based on the noise reduction required for individual properties:

Property boundary fencing or other external screen walls, and/or

Fresh air ventilation systems that allow existing windows and doors to be kept shut, sealing

wall vents and upgrading window and door seals, and/or

Upgraded windows and glazing, and solid core doors, on the exposed facade/s of masonry

structures.

Further consultation between NRT, DP&E and TfNSW is also expected to be required to determine the

expected noise exposure at any future development sites surrounding the SMTF, in order to permit

others to assess and design for noise exposure upon the future uses.

1 Operational noise and vibration overview

This Section of the ONVR provides an overview of this document and its purpose, the consultation process

undertaken during the design process and lists the different environmental noise and vibration aspects

associated with the Project.

1.1 Introduction

Renzo Tonin & Associates (NSW) Pty Ltd, on behalf of Northwest Rapid Transit (NRT) has prepared this

Operational Noise and Vibration Review (ONVR) for the final design stage of the Sydney Metro

Northwest ('Project'). This ONVR addressees SSI-5931, relating to the Sydney Metro Train Facility (SMTF,

formerly the Rapid Transit Rail Facility - RTRF). This report forms a key element of the operational

management documents for the Project.

Separate ONVR's will be prepared for train operations between Epping Station and Cudgegong Road

Station and other fixed facilities at a later date.

The Project, which has been the subject of three State Significant Infrastructure (SSI) approvals, will

deliver a new rapid transit high frequency single deck train system between the existing Chatswood

Station and new Cudgegong Road Station. The Project as a whole includes eight new stations, a four

kilometre elevated ‘Skytrain’ (viaduct) between Rouse Hill and Bella Vista, approximately 15.5 kilometres

of tunnels from Bella Vista to Epping and conversion of the existing Epping to Chatswood Rail Link

(ECRL). The SSI application for Stage 1 (SSI-5100) related to major civil construction works (EIS1) and

was approved on 25 September 2012. The Stage 2 SSI application (SSI-5414) related to the new stations,

rail infrastructure and systems works (EIS2) and was approved on 8 May 2013. The Stage 3 SSI

Application (SSI-5931), for which this ONVR relates, applied to the Sydney Metro Train Facility (EIS3) and

was approved on 15 January 2014.

The Project Environmental Assessments [8], associated Submissions Reports and Preferred Project

Reports [4] included detailed operational noise and vibration assessments which were reviewed by the

Department of Planning and Infrastructure (now Department of Planning & Environment - DP&E) prior

to the Minister for Planning and Infrastructure granting the Project Approval. This ONVR builds on these

previous environmental assessments and seeks to confirm the noise and vibration control measures that

would be implemented for the Project in accordance with the requirements of the Minister for

Planning’s Conditions of Approval [1].

This ONVR outlines the operational noise and vibration objectives and project specific criteria, noise-

modelling results, discussion of feasible and reasonable noise and vibration mitigation measures; and

the location, type and timing of noise mitigation measures. In addition, the ONVR outlines the

consultation strategy for seeking feedback from directly affected property owners and the procedures

for operational noise and vibration complaints management following the completion and opening of

the Project.




105005-E] 3



Figure 1-2: SMTF ONVR project boundary

1.3 Purpose

Broadly, the purpose of the ONVR is to:

identify the operational noise (air and ground-borne) and vibration objectives to manage

noise and vibration impacts on adjoining development and other noise-sensitive receivers,

predict the operational noise and vibration impacts at adjoining development based on the

final design of the project,

identify mitigation measures for controlling operational noise and vibration at source and at

nearby sensitive receivers,

outline the consultation strategy that will be adopted for directly affected property owners,

and

describe the procedures for operational noise and vibration complaints management once

the Project is operational.

More specifically, the ONVR has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the SSI-5931

Approval. Additional requirements for the ONVR were also stipulated in Appendix 44 of the Project's

Scope and Performance Requirements (SPR). The following table outlines the relevant requirements and

identifies where in the ONVR they have been addressed.




105005-E] 9



1.6 Operational noise and vibration aspects of the SMTF

1.6.1 Fixed facilities

The noise generating equipment and operations associated with the SMTF are categorised as fixed

facilities, and in accordance with Condition F2 of SSI 5931, noise emission are required to be assessed

against the NSW Industrial Noise Policy (INP) [5]. The SMTF includes:

Maintenance operations,

Stabling roads and associated train movements within the SMTF,

train wash,

wheel lathe,

administration building mechanical equipment

car park,

bulk supply substation and traction substation.

1.6.2 Railway operations

In accordance with Condition F1 of SSI 5931, the rail line components are to be designed and operated

with the objective of not exceeding the airborne and ground-borne noise trigger levels at existing

development. Condition C5 of SSI 5931 however defines the SMTF as a fixed facility and therefore

requires assessment against the NSW Industrial Noise Policy (INP) [5] only, and not the RING [7]. A

separate ONVR will be prepared at a later date which will assess rail operations in accordance with SSI-

5414.

1.7 Terminology

1.7.1 Noise and vibration terminology

A Glossary of the acoustic terminology used within this report is presented within APPENDIX A.

1.7.2 Track chainage and directions

Consistent with normal rail terminology, track chainages for the main alignment are referenced to 0 km

at Central Station. Down and Up directions refer to trains travelling away from and towards Central

Station, respectively. For the Sydney Metro Northwest the Down and Up sides of the corridor are the

left-hand and right-hand sides, respectively, when facing towards the SMTF from Cudgegong Road

Station.

The track chainages are illustrated on the Location Maps in APPENDIX B.




105005-E] 10



1.7.3 Types of noise and vibration

The most common form of noise experienced by people is termed ‘airborne noise’, indicating that it

propagates between the source and receiver primarily through the air. This is the primary form of noise

that occurs adjacent to surface railway tracks, roads and construction sites.

Ground-borne noise is the term used to describe the process where vibrational energy from the railway

propagates through the ground, which transfers into the building walls and floors and re-radiates as

noise which can be heard by occupants. Ground-borne noise has the potential to be evident where

railway tracks are underground or in deep cuttings, where the air-borne noise path is not present or

negligible.

In some cases, ground-borne vibration from a railway line can be felt by building occupants. Without

appropriate controls, the vibration may also induce secondary effects such as the rattling of crockery

and other loose fittings and furnishings, but is rarely of sufficient magnitude to cause direct damage to

buildings.

1.8 Structure of this report

This report is structured as follows:

Section 2 provides an overview of sensitive receivers including residences and other land

uses considered in this noise and vibration study.

Section 3 presents the Project specific criteria relevant to the surrounding sensitive receivers.

The SMTF design and operational inputs relevant to the noise and vibration assessment are

outlined in Section 4.

The results of noise modelling and assessment of reasonable and feasible mitigation

measures in outlined in Section 5.

Consultation with property owners being considered for at-property treatments is detailed in

Section 6.

The operational noise monitoring program is set out in Section 7.

105005-E] 11



2 Land use survey surrounding SMTF

2.1 Overview

A land use survey has been undertaken to confirm the location of sensitive receivers that are potentially

impacted by noise and vibration from the Project.

In accordance with SPR Appendix 44 Clause 3.2 a. i), and as relevant to the SMTF, the following

information has been established:

A detailed land use survey carried out to identify potentially critical areas that are sensitive to

operational noise (air and ground-borne) and vibration impacts, having regard to the type of

land use.

The land use report identifies the land use category and the associated operational noise and

vibration criteria at all sensitive receivers potentially impacted by the Project.

All receivers located within 200 m of the stationary facility are to be tabulated.

The tabulation must include a unique identification nomenclature for each receiver, with its

planned distance to the nearest track (or stationary facility), receiver type and applicable

criteria.

2.2 Receiver ID nomenclature and methodology

Receivers were identified via a range of methods described below:

Rail Alignment – The three-dimensional rail alignment of each track was provided by the NRT

project team. Each track was converted into 5 m segments with the relevant track chainage

assigned as a unique identifier for the start of each segment.

A Cadastral Boundary layer, identifying the property boundaries of all parcels of land within

the project area was provided by NRT.

The most recent Aerial Photography from NearMap and/or Google Earth was utilised to

locate buildings on each parcel of land. For the airborne noise modelling, the aerial imagery

was utilised to digitise the buildings and locate them within the three-dimensional GIS

database and noise modelling software. These resources were utilised to determine the

number of floor levels for each building and the approximate building heights.

Additional land use information was sourced from the EIS, discussions with local Councils,

site visits from members of the project team and other information available in the public

domain.

The following nomenclature has been adopted for receivers located within the database.




105005-E] 12



Example Receiver ID: 25010-121U-OFF

where

25010 represents the location of the centre of the building (track chainage), based on the

down track

121 represents the distance from the centre of the building to the nearest track centreline

(in metres)

U represents the direction of the nearest track (U for Up track and D for Down track)

OFF represents the land use category (see below for receiver types)

The above nomenclature has been undertaken to generate a unique Receiver ID for each sensitive

building, based on the coordinates of the geometric centre of the building. The following land use

categories (receiver types) have been identified within the Project area:

CHC - Child Care

CIN - Cinema

HOS - Hospital

IND - Industrial

OFF - Office (Commercial)

PoW - Place of Worship

RES - Residential

RET - Retail

SCH - School

Maps showing the various receivers and future land uses surrounding the SMTF are presented in

APPENDIX B. An extract of the database identifying the sensitive receivers applicable to the current

assessment are also provided in APPENDIX B. The table provides a summary of the following

information:

105005-E] 13



2.3 Land uses

2.3.1 Existing development

The existing land use survey has found that the SMTF is surrounding by predominately residential land.

2.3.2 Future development

While future development sites are required to be considered in the assessment of environmental noise

and vibration, the assessment is not strictly for the requirement of compliance via control at source, but

to assist development of, and inform land use planning controls.

As outlined in the noise and vibration assessment carried out during the EIS stage [8], it was

recommended that where possible, noise sensitive development such as residential development, be

removed from the immediate vicinity of the SMTF. However, with the land surrounding the SMTF,

particularly the eastern side of Tallawong Road being in close proximity to Cudgegong Road Station,

many other positive planning outcomes are addressed by locating residential development in proximity

to the SMTF.

While the acoustic design of the SMTF has been informed by the existing residential development, and

all feasible and reasonable mitigation and maintenance measures have been adopted to minimise the

source levels of noise and vibration, there are fewer options to control noise to the upper levels of

multi-level residential developments, being above noise barriers and less shielded by intervening

structures. Consultation with DP&E and TfNSW has therefore occurred in order to develop appropriate

design responses for future noise sensitive development proposed around the SMTF, particularly with

regard to Riverstone East North West Growth Centre [9].

Where residual noise impacts may result, particularly at upper levels of future development, NRT will

consult further with DP&E, TfNSW and Blacktown Council to assist with the identification of any

mitigation measures required by future development surrounding the SMTF.

2.3.3 Noise Catchment Areas (NCAs)

For the purpose of assessing noise, the residential areas surrounding the SMTF have been divided into

Noise Catchment Areas (NCAs) to north, east, south and west, which describe areas of similar

topographical and acoustic features. Figure B.1 in Appendix B presents the nominated NCAs used in the

noise design along with other noise sensitive receivers that have been identified in the land use survey.

Table 2-1 below summarises the NCAs identified for the SMTF design and provides a description of the

typical land uses and dwelling types found in each catchment.




105005-E] 17



3 Noise and vibration criteria

This Section of the ONVR outlines the noise and vibration criteria for operation of the SMTF.

3.1 NSW Industrial Noise Policy (INP)

The noise generating equipment and operations associated with the SMTF are categorised as fixed

facilities, and in accordance with Condition F2 of SSI 5931, noise emissions are required to be assessed

against the NSW Industrial Noise Policy (INP) [5]. The Project Approval conditions require that

operational noise targets for fixed facilities and associated activities be identified in the ONVR.

The noise targets in the INP have been selected to protect at least 90 per cent of the population living in

the vicinity of industrial noise sources from the adverse effects of noise for at least 90 per cent of the

time. Provided the noise targets in the INP are achieved, then it is unlikely that most people would

consider the resultant noise levels excessive. In those cases where the noise targets are not, or cannot

be, achieved it does not automatically follow that those people affected by the noise would find the

noise unacceptable.

The INP sets two separate noise targets to meet environmental noise objectives: one to account for

‘intrusive’ noise and the other to protect the acoustic ‘amenity’ of particular land uses (e.g. residential).

The Intrusive Noise Target allows for controlled increases above the background noise levels and

manages intrusive noise impacts in the short-term for residences. The Amenity Target is specific to land

use and associated activities. It is designed to limit continuing increases in industrial noise sources and

maintain noise level amenity for particular land uses, for example residential, educational, and

recreational.

The INP defines three standard time periods for assessment being:

Day 7am to 6pm,

Evening 6pm to 10pm, and

Night time 10pm to 7am.

However Section 3.3 of the INP, details situations where different assessment periods or ‘shoulder’

periods may be established. The example provided in the INP is that of early morning operations (5am

to 7am), which may be proposed that occur during a period when the background noise level may be

steadily rising. In such a case, it may not be considered reasonable to assess the early morning

operations against a potentially more stringent night time noise criteria.

The Sleep Disturbance Targets specifically for night operations, have been determined in accordance

with the Application Notes of the INP [13] and the NSW Environmental Criteria for Road Traffic Noise

(‘ECRTN’) [14].




105005-E] 20



whether there are times of day when there is a clear change in the noise environment

(such as during early morning shoulder periods).

The LA1, (1 minute) descriptor is meant to represent a maximum noise level measured under 'fast'

time response. The EPA will accept analysis based on either LA1, (1 minute) or LA, (Max).

In addition, reference is made to Appendix B of the NSW ECRTN [14], which summarises the findings of

international research undertaken on sleep disturbance from noise (up until 2009) and concludes:

“Considering all of the foregoing information the following conclusions can be drawn:

Maximum internal noise levels below 50-55dB(A) are unlikely to cause awakening

reactions.

One or two noise events per night, with maximum internal noise levels of 65-70dB(A), are

not likely to affect health and wellbeing significantly.”

In regard to external noise levels, the maximum internal noise level 55dB(A) referenced in the ECRTN is

equivalent to 65dB(A) outside an open window. It is noted that a 10dB(A) reduction from outside to

inside is common and typical noise reduction via an open window. The 65dB(A) external noise limit is

consistent with the findings of Griefahn [15].

In summary, the sleep disturbance criteria of LA1(1min) ≤ LA90(15min) + 15dB(A) is to be used for initial

assessment, however consideration is also given to the ‘upper’ limit criteria of 65dB(A) in accordance

with the ECRTN. It is noted that the background LA90(15minute) noise level used for establishing the sleep

disturbance criteria does not need to exclude other noise from the subject premise.

3.1.4 Established noise goals

Table 3-2 summarises the single Rating Background Levels (RBL) and relevant INP intrusiveness, amenity

and sleep disturbance noise criteria applicable at land uses surrounding the SMTF. In regard to the noise

amenity criteria, it is noted that no existing industrial noise contribution was identified at the nearest

most potentially affected receiver locations and therefore no modification to the amenity targets as per

Table 2.2 of the INP were required.

The established noise goals are based on the existing noise levels measured for the area, as described in

APPENDIX C. Any change in noise level as a result of future growth in the area cannot be readily

quantified. Therefore, these noise goals may be conservative, in particular for the day and evening

periods in NCAs RTF-03 and RTF-04.




105005-E] 23



3.3 Rail infrastructure noise guideline (RING)

In accordance with Condition F1 of SSI 5931, the rail line components are to be designed and operated

with the objective of not exceeding the airborne and ground-borne noise trigger levels at existing

development. Condition C5 of SSI 5931 however defines the SMTF as a fixed facility and therefore

requires assessment against the NSW Industrial Noise Policy (INP) [5] only, and not the RING [7].




105005-E] 24



4 Noise assessment inputs and procedures

4.1 Overview

The noise and vibration sources associated with normal operations of the SMTF include:

Trains in stabling area including preparation for service, arrival and departure movements

and internal cleaning,

Maintenance and cleaning activity within the maintenance building,

Train wash plant

Wheel reprofiling using a double headed underfloor wheel lathe (UFWL)

Mechanical equipment serving the Administration building, Maintenance building and

Infrastructure Workshop,

Electrical equipment, including substations and bulk supply.

External graffiti cleaning and biological cleaning, as well as intermittent use of the low speed

test track (535m) have not been included in the standard operational noise assessment of the

SMTF. Where practical, it is recommended that use of these facilities not occur during the

night time or early morning shoulder periods (10pm to 7am) for the purpose of noise

management.

4.2 Design year

Condition F4(b) of SSI-5931 states that the ONVR shall 'predict the operational noise and vibration

impacts at receiving existing development based on the final design and operation of the SSI (this should

include consideration of rail movements associated with future Tier 1 rail operations)'. It is noted that Tier

1 rail operations relate to single-deck rapid transit services, rather than Tier 2 (double-deck suburban

train services) or Tier 3 (double-deck intercity train services) [18, pp. 1-7].

The capacity of the SMTF will expand over time, to accommodate additional trains that are forecast to

operate on the Sydney Metro Northwest line, as well maintain metro trains that are proposed to operate

on the expanded metro rail network. The current design of the SMTF is to provide stabling and

maintenance for up to 37 sets of six-car trains. This is referred to as the 'Ultimate Design' year, being the

ultimate capacity of the current design. The SMTF will however initially operate with a fleet size of 22

sets of six-car trains ('Initial design year,').

Future design augmentation within the current site boundary will be required to provide for the

maintenance of up to 76 eight-car trains and stabling of up to 46 eight-car trains ('safeguarded

capacity'). In addition, on-site car parking requirements will increase from 121 spaces to 228.

Consideration of this 'Augmentation' scenario has been considered in-principle. Under operations for




105005-E] 25



Augmentation, the increase in LAeq noise levels is predicted to be between 2-3dB(A), assuming a

proportional increase in train activity, car park movements and general operations.

We understand that Augmentation may also require 24-hour operation of the Train Wash Plant and

extended operation of the Wheel Lathe. The assessment presented herein indicates that the Train Wash

Plant is not dominant in comparison to other major sources, and while the Wheel Lathe is a primary

contributor at , its operation would result in only marginal increases in the night

time predicted noise level (less than 2dB(A)).

The land use planning changes proposed for the area surrounding the SMTF will result in a very

different acoustic environment by Augmentation, compared with Ultimate design year. So as not to

impose unfairly stringent noise mitigation and operational management measures on the SMTF, the

assessment and design outcomes detailed in this report are based on Ultimate design year operations.

It is noted that as the timing for expansion between Initial and Ultimate design year is not known, the

acoustic design of the SMTF is conservatively based on existing background noise levels and Ultimate

design year operations.

4.3 SMTF Operations

Noise emission from the SMTF will vary throughout the daytime, evening and night-time periods on the

basis of train movements and operations, loads on mechanical equipment, and types of activities such

as cleaning, maintenance and wheel lathe operation. For noise assessment and design purposes, it is

necessary to develop noise modelling scenarios that accurately represent the proposed operations

during the relevant assessment periods.

Typical worst-case scenarios have been established for the range of assessment time periods and key

operational variations. Table E1 in Appendix E summarises the operational assumptions used for the

purpose of noise mitigation design. The following discusses the basis of specific operating assumptions.

4.3.1 Stabling yard

1. The SMTF has been designed to stable up to 37 six-car train sets.

2. It has been conservatively assumed that all 37 train are stabled at the SMTF overnight. In

practice, there is potential for some trains to be stabled overnight at underground stations.

This has an acoustic benefit in that it reduces the number of trains requiring preparation in

the early morning period.

3. While stabled at the yard, pantographs will be lowered and trains powered down.

4. Prior to trains departing for service, trains are powered and run through a series of test

procedures to ensure they are ready for service. This process takes approximately 20 minutes

per train, and is to occur in batches of 5 trains (for redundancy). The procedure involves:

a. Raising of pantographs and operation of auxiliary converter (Constant Voltage Source -

CVS)




105005-E] 26



b. Testing of electrical systems

c. Operation of air compressor

d. Operation of Heating, Ventilation and Air-conditioning (HVAC) (ventilation mode in

morning / medium cooling in afternoon)

5. Once trains are prepared and ready for departure systems will remain on and idle.

6. Interior cleaning of trains will occur in the stabling yard and be carried out on a daily basis, 2

hours following morning peak, 2 hours following evening peak and 2 hours once all trains

have returned from service at night [19].

7. Appendix E outlines the noise sources and modelling assumptions for the stabling yard.

4.3.2 Rolling stock

1. Noise from trains within the SMTF will predominately relate to auxiliary systems on the train,

including HVAC, CVS and air compressors. Air compressors will typically operate only during

start-up preparations, for a short period, until air reservoirs are full.

2. In accordance with Condition C5 of SSI-5931 silencers have been incorporated into the

compressed air lines of the rolling stock to reduce noise from brake air release events. The

noise level at 1m from the brake pipe is to be less than 85dB(A), which is a significant

reduction when compared to current Sydney trains fleet. In addition, unlike the Sydney Trains

fleet, brake pipe noise events will be limited as the brake pipe is not required to be vented

during start-up procedures. The air reservoirs are required to be drained during preventative

maintenance (PM03) [19], however this is to occur within the maintenance building.

3. In addition to the above, and in accordance with Condition C5 of SSI-5931, methods to

minimise rolling stock auxiliary noise levels have been investigated. This has resulted in

enclosure of the compressor and provision of attenuators to the compressor air dryer and

HVAC supply air fan. Furthermore, the HVAC system has been design with multiple modes of

operation, which vary in noise level, to ensure noise levels are minimised as far as practical

according to operating load requirements. For example, the highest noise levels, associated

with the 'High Cooling' mode, are unlikely to result in the SMTF, due to ambient temperature

conditions and no internal heat load within the carriages (no passengers).

4. Door test procedures, required during start-up of trains, have also been modified to reduce

noise emission from the SMTF, with the chimes and automated announcements not being

sounded.

5. The HVAC operation will automatically adjust to external ambient temperatures and to meet

Project specifications for customer comfort and internal temperature conditions of the train.

These are considered as part of the noise modelling scenarios. The key assumptions are

outlined:




105005-E] 27



a. External ambient temperatures are based on meteorological data for BOM Station

067105 Richmond RAAF for 1993 to 2015, as presented in Section 4.3.4,

b. For morning start up and departure (03:40 to 07:05), HVAC will operate in ventilation

mode only – Mean 9am temperature all below 23 degrees.

c. For afternoon departures (15:20 to 16:55) HVAC may operate at medium cooling -

Mean max temp and Mean 3pm temp. Temperatures above 30deg being 61 days

(mean) annually. Note only 1dB increase for high cooling.

d. On trains return to the SMTF following service, HVAC will be in ventilation mode only

(no passengers or staff)

e. For internal cleaning during the night period, HVAC will operate in ventilation mode

only based on mean 9am temperature all below 23 degrees. Staff cannot override the

programmed operation of the HVAC.

6. Trains will be predominately controlled automatically from the operations control centre and

their speed will not exceed 25km/h (includes departure and arrival from the SMTF) [19].

Trains under manual control will be limited to 10km/h, with entry into maintenance building

limited to 6km/h.

7. Appendix E outlines the noise sources and modelling assumptions for the rolling stock.

4.3.3 Rail track

1. The majority of rail track within the SMTF is to be formed on ballast

2. To reduce potential increase in noise caused flanging at the wheel-rail interface, wheel flange

lubricators are fitted to the rolling stock.

3. Trackside lubricators are also installed at two locations, at the main branches accessing the

stabling roads (~47+414) and maintenance building (~47+357).

4.3.4 Maintenance building

1. The Maintenance building includes:

a. Five stabling roads including one for heavy cleaning, and one train lift.

b. Train lift

c. Loading area - Three overhead cranes for the lifting of train equipment such as HVAC,

pantographs and bogie handling [19].

2. First line maintenance of trains including preventive, corrective maintenance, roof and

underframe equipment change out will be carried out by MTS’s in-house staff [19].




105005-E] 28



3. The scheduled and unscheduled maintenance of trains will be carried out on the service

roads and lifting road in the Maintenance Building service roads and lifting road in the

Maintenance Building [19].

4. Overhaul of trains including second line maintenance, remove and reinstall of major

equipment, major repairs of on train equipment and overhaul of removed equipment and

components will be contracted out [19].

5. Failure repair of major equipment such as bogies, traction motors, pantograph and air

compressors etc. will be outsourced. Failure repairs of minor equipment or components

which involve specific knowledge, tools and equipment will be outsourced to Original

Equipment Manufacturers or their maintenance contractors [19].

6. Should heavy maintenance be proposed in the Maintenance building in the future, provision

has been made for noisier works to be contained within bays along the northern side of the

Maintenance building which can be readily upgraded through construction of internal

partition walls, including additions to the external building envelope (internal skin), secondary

roof and doors if required. Modification of the intake louvres may be required to

accommodate the changes.

7. Heavy cleaning for each set will occur on an approximate monthly basis on the heavy

cleaning road inside the Maintenance building [19]. Cleaning is proposed to take place

between 10:00 to 14:00 and 19:00 to 23:00 with an average of 1.32 jobs per day [19]. Lighting

and air-conditioning units may be turned on for the cleaning team [19].

8. The Maintenance building will accept deliveries to the loading dock between 7:00am and

10:00pm only. Delivery truck movements are not proposed to occur between 10:00pm and

7:00am in accordance with Minister's Condition C5 (SSI 5931).

9. The Maintenance building will be ventilated using assisted natural ventilation. A combination

of smoke and ventilation fans on the roof, along with louvred ventilation openings along the

sides of the building will assist in moving air through the building. These features have been

incorporated into the noise model and form part of the acoustic design.

10. Heating and cooling to specific work areas will also be provided with the associated external

mechanical equipment located on the rooftop of the Maintenance building. The locations

have been positioned so as they are away from building edges and acoustically shielded as

far as practical by the sawtooth roof form.

11. Appendix E outlines the noise sources and modelling assumptions for the Maintenance

building.

4.3.5 Administration building

1. The Administration building will operate 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. For design

purposes the only environmental noise sources associated with this building are mechanical

plant and noise generated by car parking activities on site (mainly during shift changes).




105005-E] 30



4.3.8 Under Floor Wheel Lathe

1. A double headed underfloor wheel lathe is to be installed within the Wheel Lathe building.

2. For the Ultimate design year scenario the wheel lathe is proposed to operate 8 hours per day,

7 days a week. The production rate is 5 passenger train wheelsets per 8-hour shift [19].

3. Use may extend to 16 hours per day when expanded to 46 eight car sets and (07:00 to 23:00),

and 24-hour work days for full Augmentation.

4. The train is not operational during the lathing process and the train is moved using an

electric train shunter.

5. Appendix E outlines the noise sources and modelling assumptions for the Wheel Lathe.

4.3.9 Infrastructure Workshop and Rail Store

1. The Infrastructure Workshop is proposed to be used during the 07:00 to 18:00 daytime

period only.

2. General operational noise sources from the buildings are limited to mechanical plant

equipment as detailed in Appendix E.

4.3.10 Distribution and Traction building

1. The Distribution and Traction building equipment will operate 24 hours per day, 7 days per

week.

2. For acoustic design purposes the only environmental noise emission sources identified for

this building are the transformers and reactor. Harmonic Filters form part of the DC

Switchboard and are installed indoors in a purpose built switch room. Noise emission will

therefore not be significant and has not been included in the noise model.

3. Noise emission from circuit breakers has not been included in the operational noise

assessment as they occur under fault conditions, which are highly irregular events.

4. Appendix E outlines the noise sources and modelling assumptions for the Distribution and

Traction building.

4.3.11 Bulk Supply building

1. The Bulk Supply equipment will operate 24 hours per day, 7 days per week.

2. For design purposes the only environmental noise emission source identified for this building

is the bulk supply transformer. Harmonic Filters may be required and are yet to be confirmed.

3. Appendix E outlines the noise sources and modelling assumptions for the Bulk Supply

building.




105005-E] 31



4.3.12 Fire pump room

1. On the basis of the specified equipment and building design outlined in Appendix E, noise

levels are predicted to comply with the emergency noise requirements for the full perimeter

of the building excluding louvre locations where noise levels are predicted to exceed the

requirement by 3dB(A). The exceedance is predicted only for the operation of the diesel

pump.

2. It is noted that the pump only operates in emergencies and is not part of the environmental

noise model.

3. While a diesel pump with lower sound power will be sought during procurement, additional

acoustic treatment of the building envelope is not considered reasonable or feasible for the

limited operation of the pump. It is noted that the louvres have been positioned on the

western and southern sides of the building so as to direct noise away from the most sensitive

locations. It is understood that during operation, personnel will not be in close proximity to

the building, particularly the facades comprising acoustic louvres.

4.4 Noise modelling

4.4.1 Environmental noise predictions

Environmental noise predictions were carried out using the CONCAWE [21] noise prediction algorithm

as implemented within the CadnaA 3D noise modelling software (version 4.5.151). The CONCAWE

algorithm predicts noise levels that take into account noise attenuation due to distance, ground

topography, acoustic shielding from intervening elements, noise reduction of building envelope

components, atmospheric absorption and meteorological conditions.

Predicted noise emissions are based on the sources and assumptions in Appendix E to ensure that

cumulative noise impact from all sources within the SMTF has been taken into account. Results of noise

predictions are presented in Appendix F, incorporating all noise mitigation and management design

measures contained in this report.

4.4.2 Noise generation within buildings

Noise generation within buildings, including the Maintenance building, Wheel Lathe, Train Wash and

components of the Administration Building roof top plant room were modelled within CadnaR 3D noise

modelling software (version 2.2.105) prior to being incorporated into the CadnaA environmental noise

model.

4.4.3 Meteorological conditions

In accordance with the INP, the noise assessment considers the effects of adverse meteorological

conditions such as wind and temperature inversions. The noise enhancement from temperature

inversion is required to be assessed when temperature inversions are predicted to occur more than 30%




105005-E] 35



5 Acoustic design outcomes

The noise mitigation and management measures recommended for incorporation into the SMTF design

are presented in Appendix E. The advice provided is in respect of acoustics only.

5.1 Summary of predicted noise levels

Table F1 in Appendix F presents a summary of the predicted noise levels for the various operating

scenarios outlined in Table E1.

The primary noise sources contributing to each of the predicted exceedances have also been identified

in Tables F2 to F4 for the Shoulder, Day and Evening periods respectively for the locations where non-

compliance is predicted.

In all cases, the primary contributors to predicted exceedances are noise sources not readily controlled

through design of the SMTF buildings, including trains in the stabling area, truck movements, door

openings (Maintenance building) and open ends of buildings (wheel lathe) etc.

5.2 Feasible and reasonable design measures

The assessment of feasible and reasonable mitigation measures is based on the guidance in

Sections 1.4.5 and 7 of the NSW INP.

In this context feasibility relates to engineering considerations and what can practically be built, and

reasonableness relates to the application of judgement in arriving at a decision, taking into account the

following factors:

noise mitigation benefits - amount of noise reduction provided, number of people protected

cost of mitigation - cost of mitigation versus benefit provided

community views - aesthetic impacts and community wishes

noise levels for affected land uses – existing and future levels, and changes in noise levels

A range of noise mitigation measures have been considered as part of the noise mitigation design to

protect noise sensitive receivers surrounding the SMTF. There are three categories into which these

noise mitigation measures can fall:

In-Corridor Treatment (at source);

In-Corridor Treatment (between source and receiver); and

At Property Treatment (at receiver).

The preferred noise mitigation treatment option is ‘In-Corridor Treatment (at source)’, such as building

HVAC treatment, architectural attenuation measures, train subsystem noise control or changes to work




105005-E] 41



of higher density development, may be exposed to noise levels above those recommended in the NSW

INP. However, it is considered that the likely noise exposure, even after future expansion of the SMTF,

will be acceptable, provided that some mitigation measures and controls are incorporated into the

design of the residential development. Accordingly, objectives and controls have been incorporated into

the Riverstone East Growth Centre DCP to require consideration of noise emission from the SMTF in the

design of the future development. Similar controls would also be required for development within the

Area 20 Growth Centre that are located in proximity to the SMTF.

Notwithstanding the controls outlined, further consultation between NRT, DP&E and TfNSW will be

required to determine the expected noise exposure at any future development site, in order to permit

assessment and design of the future uses.




105005-E] 42



6 Consultation with affected property owners

6.1 Existing dwellings

Once the ONVR has been submitted to DP&E, consultation with owners of existing structures that

require at-property noise mitigation treatment (as identified in Table 5-3) will commence.

As set out in Section 5.3, at-property treatments may comprise:

Property boundary fencing or other external screen walls, and / or

Fresh air ventilation systems, that allow existing windows and doors to be shut to all

habitable rooms identified as potentially impacted by noise.

[Note: The above is dependent on advice from mechanical ventilation contractor for rooms

requiring windows/doors to be closed for noise mitigation. Air conditioning will not be

provided by the Project in this case.]

Habitable rooms potentially impacted by noise may also require:

Sealing of any wall vents,

Replacement of existing weather seals on doors and windows with acoustic seals,

Upgrade of doors and windows,

[Note: Shall only be conducted on buildings with masonry construction because light frame

structures will not achieve a significant noise benefit.]

It is noted that the above described treatments will only be offered to residences with rooms defined as

‘habitable’ (eligible for eg. bedrooms, living rooms, dining rooms etc.) having facades that are identified

as potentially impacted by noise from the Project. The level of treatment to be offered to individual

residences will depend on the noise reduction required and the location of habitable rooms.

It is also noted, that for a building to be eligible for upgraded windows, glazing and solid core doors, as

described above in Item 4, it must be of masonry construction (eg brick or block work etc), because this

higher level of noise mitigation treatment will not achieve a significant noise benefit for buildings of

light frame construction.

Based on the approved ONVR, specific residences for treatment and the noise reduction required for

each residence will be confirmed. Consultation with these property owners will involve:

An initial letter sent to affected property owners, outlining the requirements of the property

treatment, the level of treatment required for the subject property and next steps.

A phone call to discuss whether the property owner will initially agree to a property

inspection, which is required to determine the exact scope of the treatment to be provided.




105005-E] 43



If the owner agrees to the inspection, NRT will arrange a time to measure up and record

internal layouts.

Specific property information will then be utilised to determine the most appropriate form of

acoustic treatment for each eligible property, with input from NRT’s acoustic consultant,

Renzo Tonin and Associates, where required. Only treatments that are required to meet

relevant noise criteria will be offered.

A schedule of the designed treatment would be provided to the property owner. Should the

owner agree to this treatment, the owner will be asked to sign a Deed of Release.

Following receipt of the signed Deed of Release, NRT will liaise with the property owner to

arrange a suitable time for the specific treatment to be installed.

Alternatively, if the property owner would like to arrange for the purchase and installation of the

required treatment(s), NRT will provide a one off payment to cover the reasonable cost of the works (as

estimated by NRT) following receipt of the signed Deed of Release.

Any queries relating to operational noise from residents that are not eligible to receive at-property

treatments will be responded to through the Project complaints management process in accordance

with the Community Liaison Plan.

6.2 Future development

As outlined in Section 5.4, further consultation between NRT, DP&E and TfNSW is expected to be

required to determine the expected noise exposure at any future development sites surrounding the

SMTF, in order to permit others to assess and design for noise exposure upon the future uses.




105005-E] 44



7 Operational noise monitoring program

7.1 Monitoring of noise emissions from the SMTF

In accordance with Minster for Planning and Infrastructure's Conditions of Approval Condition F2,

operational noise levels shall be reviewed within two years of commencement of operations and at any

subsequent time as required by the Director General. The review shall have regard to the status of land

use planning, any land use changes and the background noise environment within areas adjacent to the

fixed facilities at the time of the relevant review. NRT shall submit the results of the review to the

Director General. Any proposed changes to the operational noise levels as a result of the review shall be

included in a revised ONVR.

7.2 Operational noise complaint response procedures

The operator is committed to a strong program of customer engagement will be developed to

encourage ongoing feedback that will be used in the continual improvement of the Sydney Metro

Northwest services. As part of the Project requirements, the operator is to prepare an "Operational

Phase Environmental and Sustainable Plan", which is to be provided 120 days prior to trial running. This

document will provide further detail around the complaints management procedures, however the

following principles are to be adopted:

The public will be able to make enquiries and complaints through a number of channels,

including:

phone lines operated by TfNSW on behalf of the NSW Government

website operated by TfNSW on behalf of the NSW Government using feedback

mechanisms such as online forms, and

Operator email, for example [email protected]

Enquiries and complaints received by TfNSW in relation to the operation of Sydney

Metro Northwest will be directed to the operator for response and action.

All complaints are to be recorded and follow up actions documented

All complaints will be investigated in order to establish the nature of the noise and vibration

disturbance. At the discretion of the complainant(s) the operator shall contact the complaint,

Following initial investigation of the complaint, an appropriate course of action will be

determined and communicated with the complainant. This may involve:

Direct and prompt rectification of the cause of complaint where it is identified that the

source of noise or vibration is not operating in accordance with the Project

requirements,

Further investigation by a qualified acoustic consultant to quantify and assess the

source of noise and/or vibration against the Project requirements,




105005-E] 45



If the source is found to be non-compliant with the Project requirements, feasible and

reasonable mitigation measures will be investigated.

Where noise and/or vibration measures are determined to be required, a program for

rectification works will be established and communication with the complainant.




105005-E] 46



8 Independent verification of noise and vibration study

This Section of the ONVR outlines the independent verification of the operational noise and vibration

impact assessment undertaken by a noise and vibration expert approved by the Director-General of the

Department of Planning and Infrastructure

In accordance with the Minister for Planning and Infrastructures' Conditions of Approval the ONVR has

been independently reviewed by a noise and vibration expert approved by the Director-General.

AECOM were engaged to undertake this independent verification role. The AECOM team consists of:

- Principal Acoustic Engineer

The Director-General granted approval for AECOM to undertake this role on 10 February 2016.

The verification scope was developed in consultation with the EPA on 9 February 2016 as required by

Condition F4 of SSI-5931. The scope includes:

Review of background noise monitoring results and fixed facilities targets.

Review of adopted noise and vibration criteria.

Review of the adequacy of the methodology utilised.

Review of modelling inputs and outputs.

Review of the adequacy of the conclusions in relation to the potential extent of noise and

vibration impact and the required mitigation.

A statement of verification has been prepared by AECOM and is attached in APPENDIX G.




105005-E] 47



9 Conclusion

This Operational Noise and Vibration Review (ONVR) has been prepared in accordance with the

requirements of the Ministers Conditions Approval for State Significant Infrastructure SSI-5931, and

additional requirements of the Project’s Scope and Performance Requirements (SPRs) Appendix 44. The

ONVR has been prepared in consultation with relevant the government agencies and has been

independently peer reviewed.

This ONVR confirms the proposed noise and vibration mitigation measures that are to be implemented

into the design and operation of the Sydney Metro Train Facility (SMTF) and discusses when these will

be implemented and how they will be verified once the Project is operational. A complaints

management procedure is also outlined for the ongoing management of noise and vibration from the

SMTF.
